The diamond drill. (Crystal Falls, Iron County, Mich.) 1887-1996, 1887-08-06

On Saturday last game OF base ball
was played here by the Crystal Falls
Base Ball club and the Maroons, of Nor
way, which resulted in score OF twenty
five TO twenty-eight in favor OF the home
club. The attendance at the ball lgrounds
was not large, not more than five or six
hundred people being present, but what
was lacking in number was doubly made
up in enthusiasm. The game WAS called
at 2:3O with Maroons TO bat. In this
half inning occurred an accident that
came very near resulting disastrously to
our boys; the first, second and third
bases were occupied when Patenaud went
To bat and getting one where he wanted
il batted outside Of the field limits into
the under brush and the ball was lost,
the result was that the Maroon's scored
four tallies, which brought forth loud
cheers from the Maroons' many admirers.
The next inning resulted in a white-wash
for the home nine and made things look
blue for a while. IL was very plain TO be
seen that our boys were ratified little,
but they were determined to do their
best At the end Of the fifth inning the
score stood fifteen 10 eleven in favor Of
the visiting club and ON the seventh in
ming the Maroons got n ''goose-egg. !"
Things had taken different form and
the home nine were playing with admir-
able precision, having taken the lead
were bound To hold il. At the compile
ton OF the eighth inning the home nine
stood six ahead and the Maroons went
TO bat and made a mighty effort but our
boys had got warmed up and they only
ran in three tallies, -thus leaving them
defeated. The appended score shows the
runs and outs OF each player:

A COMMUNICATION.



In looking over, accidently, n recent
issue bearing the bold title OF Iron
River Reporter" and purporting TO be n
newspaper published almost every week
ut the city OF Iron River, Mich, found,
among other antiquities, pretense oi a
description Of our thriving town, given,
no doubt, for the benefit OF people living
mt Pamela or other distant towns where
ever the above publication, through the
mercy Of Uncle Sans postal laws, may
chance To wander, that may not have
heard OF or seen our bustling little city.
IL was this ridiculous description that
made me notice the article above referred
TO IL is also that which causes me To re-
fleet, and think, and express my thoughts
whether or not il would be advisable for
the old, out-of-date school marin who
publishes the newspaper clippings under
the above title, TO give his few and lar
apart and perhaps distant subscribers,
an accurate or vivid description of his
own town, Iron River, and tell them Iron
River il nice little place, having about
450 inhabitants and that their main
street is level (which, by the way, is n
great deal more than he can say OF the
Uranium adorning his shoulders) and n
lot more just such interesting data,
instead Of trying To say something Of
which he knows so little or nothing; or
perhaps some local news once In IA while
would be appreciated by his subscribers.
do not, by any means, intend TO mind
somebody else's business, but can't help
but notice such ridiculous items as the
one referred 60 about our town, In which
all that live here take such an interest
and pride, which h decidedly more that
''lots" can say Of a town they ever lived
in. Hoping, Mr.. Editor, you will ex-
cuse the liberty have taken, / am
Yours truly,
